The play on words in the title of this book gave me high hopes and I was not disappointed. Desire Evans was born in the most chaotic of situations to a drug-addicted mother. Saved by angelic Hattie Mae, Desire manages to loose herself of her turbulent past and rise, with fame, fortune, and success on her heels. But like they say, “Everything that goes up must come down” and down indeed does Desire fall, right back into footsteps of her mother’s past. “Street Girl” was definitely a page-turner with very descriptive and graphic imagery that left very little to the imagination.

1. What did you like best about this book?
The imagery was incredible it was very detailed.

2. What did you dislike about this book?
Not much, it held my interest.

3. How can the author improve this book?
There were a couple points where the story could have flowed a bit more smoothly, felt a bit disjointed in places.
